The Yearling

 

The way he was looking at me, I seriously thought he was thinking, I need to come in, I'm cold and I'm hungry.  Please.

 

His Mom.

 

One watchful eye.

 

 

I wish I could see if he has antler buds, he may actually be a she.

 

 

Look at the length of those lower eye lashes.  

 

Despite the harsh winter, he looks very healthy.

 

I use a 300 mm telephoto lens for my photos so it keeps me at a distance and the wildlife don't get too use to me.

Wildlife Pictures from this Weekend

The heavy snow has brought lots of wildlife to the property.  Big Horns of course and the ewe still wearing her GPS collars.

Larger Ram making sure the other one knows who is in charge of this herd. 

 

A yearling white tail deer.

The Big Horns making their way back home.

I was able to walk along the drive despite my leg and the deep snow to watch all the interaction of the herd.

A view of the canyon from my window and one elk.  I have to take the pictures of the elk from inside the house since they will run from the slightest noise.

Elk grazing in the lower meadow.

 

Elk right outside the kitchen window.

One elk bedded down in the snow in the afternoon after grazing all morning.
